We met and discussed about this topic in the chat series yesterday.  Sharing
the summary for keeping the open discussion.

Honggyu thankfully accepted my humble suggestions on the last reply.  Honggyu
will post the third version of this patchset soon.  The patchset will implement
two new DAMOS actions, namely MIGRATE_HOT and MIGRATE_COLD.  Those will migrate
the DAMOS target regions to a user-specified NUMA node, but will have different
prioritization score function.  As name implies, they will prioritize more hot
regions and cold regions, respectively.

Honggyu, please feel free to fix if there is anything wrong or missed.

And thanks to Honggyu again for patiently keeping this productive discussion
and their awesome work.


Thanks,
SJ
